Better than getting an email like I got after selling some steelies to a guy in SoCal.

"Yeah, uh, who made those wheels? I had one fail at California Speedway and crashed my car. I need to get in touch w/ the manufacturer."

Some dolt decided to track his car on steel wheels... the brakes overheated, which overheated the welds in the wheels, and blammo! Kid get's a nice lesson in physics as he slids to a stop on his front brake rotor.

So, it might suck to hear that dude is enjoying the car... but that's much better news than a "WTF man, the rear suspension came off at Thunderhill, and now the car's totaled!"
